" ... I bought foam earplugs at first, the kind that expands in your ear, but they are all too big for my ears and irritate the skin around my ear canal, to the point that I would wake up from the pain. ... I then switched to these and they are so comfortable, I can wear them every single night no problem. ... But the comfort and reliability of these headphones absolutely make up for that in my opinion. ... "
" ... Easy to mold, 85 db less, comfortable ... "
" ... They aren't as effective for me as standard foam plugs, but they are nicely reusable and very comfortable. ... I'll buy more and try, and maybe see if I could make a set of custom earbuds with these as well. ... "
" ... Extremely effective at blocking sound, better than the best foam earplugs I've tried. ... Outside of a sleeping context, these can be worn pretty much indefinitely without any discomfort at all. ... "
" ... Earplugs And earbuds you say!?! ... Everyone should have you around for their very own ear pleasure. ... I cant wear ANY type of ear plug or headphones that go in the ear, they simply dont fit or cause alot of pain after a few minutes of use. ... Well I got my trusty Radians (I had only used half for ear plugs before) and used them to create a pair of earbuds that a super rich person would be jealous of. ... "
" ... Molded one ear at a time without talking or chewing and set a timer for the prescribed amount of time. ... I used to use silicone ear plugs at night and during the day when I had to study in the house with four kids in the next rooms and these have replaced those for both purposes. ... They aren't perfect but I feel I get the same amount of noise suppression as I did from the silicone ear plugs but without the disposable nature of the silicone ones. ... "
" ... Fit perfectly in your ears when cast right. ... These stay in your ears and block out a lot of sound. ... "
" ... This is the best ear plugs. ... I work with them for 12 hr shifts and it is comfortable ... "

" ... After seeing a bunch of people using these to make custom-fit earbuds and in-ear monitors, I decided to try making my own earmolds with this stuff. ... The receivers stay in place and I don’t have to worry about my hearing aids falling out or sound leaking (and causing whistling) anymore. ... "
" ... I prefer them over foam plugs for motorcycle riding, as there is no expansion time and they stay put. ... "
" ... Consider a "bite-block" for best fit, allowing the ear canal to open fully. ... "

" ... I bought these several weeks ago for sleeping. ... delicious, undisturbed sleep! ... It's simple to pop them in before sleep. ... Fortunately I mostly sleep on my back and once I'm deeply asleep, if I roll onto my side, I often don't notice that discomfort and unconsciously adjust around it. ... But with these gum-shews, I stay asleep and it's so so good to have a night of uninterrupted sleep! ... "
" ... I love these and use them every night for sleep. ... "
" ... With both a husband and dog that snores, I have worn earplugs while I sleep for years. ... Same goes for those of us who live with someone who snores the earplugs muffle the sound enough so that you can get some sleep, but if the smoke alarm goes off or your dog starts barking at an intruder, you won't be stuck in a sound proof isolation chamber. ...
